UNBLOCK: The Fantasy Fashion Night with Huntsman

As the dust settled on the second day of London Fashion Week, UNBLOCK Magazine & Huntsman hosted an unforgettable evening to celebrate the launch of the new ‘FANTASY' issue. Aiming to open the so called ‘wall between East and West’, this event was a huge success thanks to the cornucopia of guests representing all industries; from fashion, art and music to finance, business and politics. Just to add to this there were celebrities, socialites and influencers from both the UK and Asia bringing that extra little bit of fantasy to the party.

Hosted with Huntsman Savile Row, ‘The Fantasy Fashion Night’ created a cheerful ambiance in one of the most privileged locations: Huntsman's membership club right above the heritage boutique. Alongside Huntsman's historical archive pieces, UNBLOCK displayed the new issue and large-scale editorial prints over the classic British interior.

Inside Huntsman's newly refurbished members-only club guests witnessed the release of the new issue and could browse the cutting-edge content whilst enjoying the divine Exmoor Caviar washed down with the delicious champagne & rosé provided by Luc Belaire. Also, for the gin lovers, great thanks to the King of Soho Gin for their sponsorship… ‘the bar UNBLOCK’ offered various refreshing gin-based cocktails and also non-alcoholic thirst quenchers by Peter Spanton Drinks.

The ‘Fantasy Fashion Night’ has again turned plenty of heads on social media. Our guests attending included Dakota Blue Richards, Bloomtwins, Zackary Peck, Sophie Herman, Vicki Tollman, Tom Wolfe, Andrew de Candole, Sasko Bezovski, Clea O'hana Harroch, Queennie Yang, and Deborah frances white, to name but a few. With the 21st-century disco beats played by DJ Uwe Doll, this night certainly added a delightful sprinkling of fantasy to this year's London Fashion Week.
